Trivia
Director Stanislav Govorukhin couldn't choose an actress for the role of Katya from two musical school students, Anna Sinyakina and Yuliya Nachalova (a pop singer who had already started her career at the time), and asked Mikhail Ulyanov to help. The latter picked Sinyakina.

Loved it!

A story about love for the family. Well developed plot, nicely contexualized, great finish!

The cause and effects are showed precisely, without wasting any time of the 1.5 hrs ish movie.

The casting was fantastic, all the actors, not only the top casts, but also the supporting casts did there job as it should be.

The only off for me was the ease of access to the weapons, but that may be because my lack of knowledge, may be that was the reality back then.

Other than that, I've found the storyline touchy and entertaining.

I recommend watching it to whoever loves their family.

'Job well done' to the whole team 👏
